Best Answer

Carnation milk is a poor substitute for proper baby milk. Powdered baby formula is a poor substitute for human breast milk. If the mother can't or won't feed her baby herself, the baby needs the next best thing. If there is a problem with supply of powdered baby milk or preparing the formula has to be done in unhygienic conditions, tinned milk would be the safest thing to give the child. It would have to be diluted according to the instructions on the tin, with cooled water that has been boiled. Immediately after birth, human babies have a lot of development of the brain compared to muscle. A calf on the other hand, walks immediately after birth and its brain does not develop as a human baby's does. Nature made the composition of the milk different for different species. Normal "formula baby milk" from cows is modified by the manufacturers to be as close to human milk as possible. It can't really be perfect for human babies as they are not calves, but it does a reasonable job. It is expensive because it has to be modified a lot. Carnation milk is tinned, concentrated but unmodified milk. It was never intended for babies, but it is sterile and it has a very long shelf life so it is often used by people living in very rural areas or third world countries where access to shops is problematic.
